Paul, That would be a fine match with the BM 3000-2. Go ahead! There is always room for a set of nice speakers Peter, No complaints (from me) for praising the 45-2. Brilliant comparison (VW Golf): Nothing fancy – just well & honestly made. And it’ll pass anywhere show up in it. Simon, The S30 and S45-2 are - unfortunately - very much

[quote user="Peter "] If you are looking for superb midrange especially spoken and sung voice, the speakers I use are BBC LS3/5As. Ridiculously small and no bass and the treble rolls off as well, but quite superb sonically. They divide opinions in that, as a full range speaker, they have huge flaws, but when listening to vocals, they are simply

Hi, I've got a Beomaster 2400-2 and a Beogram 2400 - but the -gram is missing pin 6 and 7 in the DIN-plug (so the remote-function is not working). Anybody know how to get these? Any help will be appreciated – thanks!

[quote user="Dillen"] I think, it could be fun to see how good a X25/X35 could become if some fairly undrastic modifications, like these, were tried on it. [/quote] Martin, I do have a pair of S35 (type 6311) that could be used for this purpose: To see what can be done to a mediocre speaker w. some DYI effort and a few new components. What

Thanks for the comments Geoff: I think the difference from changing the capacitors (which I belive is the single most influential modification) will be audible to everyone. One doesn't need to have "goldens ears" og high end equipment to spot and enjoy the improvement. I A/B-tested mine - that is of course the easiest way to tell. Try

Some time ago, I got a pair of Beovox S45-2 for a very fair price: DKK 150 / EUR 20 / USD 30 with the original stands. That was a fine day! The speakers looked somewhat neglected in many ways – but worked. And they played well – actually more than well: They sounded really good! So a lot of records/CDs were played – and a lot of Watts

[quote user="tournedos"] No need even to go highend if you don't want to, just fresh bipolar electrolytics as the original ones are bound to be more or less tired. I believe that would mostly take care of the dullness. [/quote] In general (bipolar) electrolytic capacitors are not the best in the signal line - I think this goes for cross

Mike - the small/round leg on the DIN-plug is "plus"/positive (and the larger/flat one of course "minus"/negative). Good luck! Claus

[quote user="superdario"] what speakers are you using? best regards dario [/quote] Hello Dario - Guten Abend and thanks, To answer your question, first I have to admit that I'm mostly into US/Japanese HiFi from app. 1975-1985 So I have a lot of JBL speakers at different stages of restoration (L26, L36, L65, L86, L96, L100 Century, L110

Thanks Burantek, Here is a pic that shows the Oak (as well as the one in Rosewood/Palisander). I'm sure it's "factory" because the label says "E-4" (where Rosewood/Palisander is "P-3" - and Teak is either "T-1" or "T-2") I remember this from working in the Radio-TV business (app 1975-1985) -
